The shooting occurred at about 3:45 p.m. in the 3500 block of Woodbrook Ave. The victim’s condition was not immediately known but homicide detectives were summoned to the scene due to the severity of his injuries.

Last week, a 47-year-old man was fatally shot in the same neighborhood, a few blocks south in the 2800 block of Parkwood Ave. The Safe Streets anti-violence program had held a peace rally two days later — and was shut down temporarily by the Health Department on Tuesday.

Anyone with information was asked to call homicide detectives at 410-396-2100.

A 31-year-old man who was sentenced to 20 years in prison in Baltimore after he pleaded guilty to possessing 5.9 grams of marijuana won an appeal Wednesday invalidating the plea — raising the possibility that he will be released.
